O . is paid by the Coast league to devote much of his time to pro-mote, foster and encourage jun-ior baseball. (To Be C- ontinued) WHY ARE CALIFORNIA TEAMS HARD TO BEAT? The team was given an oppor-tunity to see the wreck of the City of San Francisco when the "Challenger" was stopped just across from the scene of the ca-tastrophe. It was really a grue-some sight. The boys enjoyed their short stay in Los Angeles and marvel-ed at the large new Union sta- - tournament at San Diego. Mr. Closson is commissioner of box-ing, wrestling and athletics in the state of California, and a member of the National Board of American Legion directors of baseball. He is a very ardent sponsor of American Legion base-ball and is director of the pro-gram at Lodi. The information I am passing on to you I obtained from him. Here it is California reaches 45,000 boys with junior legion baseball. The state is divided in-to five areas and 26 districts. There are 563 odd Legion posts, over 2 3 of them sponsoring baseball Their program is so intensive that their district and area championships are run-off before June 30, just when we are starting to register our boys. No expense is spared in form-ing, equipping and handling a team, the larger posts spend close to $1200, nearly twice as much as our whole program costs us, and smaller posts spend about $300 a team. At Stockton, Cal., the chief of police, an ex-bi- g leaguer and two members of the fire depart-ment, both former big leaguers, devote much time to coach-ing American Legion boys. Red Adams, publicity may for the Mission club of the Coast league, tion. They also enjoyed the splen-did dinner given them at the station. Every boy on the team had an opportunity to see San Diego bay and the large cruisers and battleships of the U.S. navy an-chored there. Cruises were taken on the ferries and the huge air-planes, "Carriero Enterprise" and "Saratoga", gave them the big-gest thrill. The boys also had an opportun-- 1 ity to see the beach at LaJolla, the race track at Del Mar, owned by Bing Crosby, and the famous mission, San Juan Capistrano. Citrus fruit groves drew much attention all along the route. Most of the boys' time on Treasure Island was spent on the "Gay Way", but many of the boys took in the exhibits of the various states and enjoyed the exhibits in the Hall of Science and in the Transportation build-ing. Some left the fair and went over to see San Francisco's Chi-natown. They are singing praises for Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox at San Diego, because he is a San Diego boy. Screw-bal- l Williams was a great kid ball player around the water front. Going now to baseball I want to present the American Legion baseball program and high school baseball program of the state of California. When you read this you may see why California teams are so hard to beat and1 why so many great baseball play-ers come out of that state. While in California I struck-u- p a very congenial acquaintance with Archie M. Closson of Lodi, Cal., who was the director of our 1 z ' V ' ' ,1 NOTICE I will not be responsible for any debts contracted by my wife, Caroline Romero Vigil, because she is not home.

You know what happened. A home run with the bases full. If Hit-ler remembers that game I think he will come up with a sore arm.

You look off to the south and you catch sight of a black dot on the horizon. Before you can bat your eyes this man-mad- e monster of speed flashes into the measured mile. Your head turns as on a pivot as the car fades into the distance. 1 Sports Here h and There it By Ai Ablett A( r jo, Ablett gels up early to f quick at Wendover; Rales 'Vi. 0tt as minor leaguer and ir picks winners of tomorrow yankee Doodle went to town i and John Cobb went a pony E' Wednesday at dawn m a town Cft .jj Railton Red Lion, and I 1 lean hi' u t'nt t0 town- t s arcl ,,rone to conceive of a machine iided by man to travel at a peed of '" tier than six miles W; minute, but that is what this 1 English fur broker .did in setting iat mik' record at 369.74 miles 2 -- hour- . ibis, my Inends, , w an trn-- ! ;ressiv'e sight.

Then you realize that you have seen man travel faster than anyone has ever done before on land. Yes, folks, it is worth the trip. Lou Ambers is again light-weight champion of the world. It is true that Armstrong lost five rounds for low blows, but if the radio account of the fight is correct, he only had a winning margin in one of those rounds. Ambers won the others, anyway. They meet again for the welt-erweight championship, and I be-lieve Amber; again will he the winner. The ad.U J weight will make Armstn.iu'. a little slower, and he needs all of his speed against a jiti-rU- a: like Aml-r- s. The next hi;; li-- ht on the dock-et is Lou No. a vs. Tony Gah-nto- . I like Nova, as 1 hae said be-fore. I think the California boy has too much speed for Tony and he can take a punch and keep coming. This was proven m his fight with Baer. Don't let any-one kid you, that big bulk from Livermore can't hit with that right hand. He hit Nova, but he shook them off and came on to win by a technical K. O. That is the way I pick this fight to end. Tony cuts easy, and in the city of Brotherly love they don't like the sight of too much blood. No-va, inside of 12. Provo, the dark horse in the Industrial league, has been com-ing in the stretch. I still say if either the Timps or Gemmell could deliver good pitching this second half will end in a tie. I see Dividend has sent a couple of their players lo one of their farms. Glen Berge and Steve Butler are to play with the Salt Lake Bees. They haven't helped much as the siingless Bees have dropped both games since the boys joined them. It looks like the batteries for today's game are Hitler, pitching, and Poland, catching. But John Bull, the umpire, is trying lo call the game. I hope he succeeds. You know some day this tellow Hitler is going lo get into the big lea gues and my guess is he hasn't PRESCRIPTIONS ARK THE MAIN PART OF OUR BUSINESS FILLED ACCURATELY WITH FRESH DRUGS.

Playground came to a close Friday, August 18, after a very successful season. The champion-ship games were run-of- f and ev-ery boy felt that he was ready to lay his glove and bat aside and put his fast curve ball into cold storage. The Elva-Rui- h Shoppe Pe-wee- s were awarded the trophy in the Pewee league as a result of winning four straight quar-ters of play. Kent Stillman, Delmar Schick, Gordon Buckle, Bobby Blake, Bailey Saniis-tevan Jr., Eddie Osoro, John Russell Frazier, Robert Nich-ols, Floyd Cox, Georgie Di-m-and Jimmie Dimas were the mainstays of this club. The junior league champion-ship series was won by Chipian's Food Store after a hard three-gam- e series, Chipian winning the first game 13-1- 1 and the Vet-eran of Foreign Wars the sec-ond 15-1- The final game was won by Chipian's 20-1- 7. The ser-ies were featured by the pitching of Don Paulsen and Glenn Dra-per for Veterans of Foreign Wars and Cliff Groves for Chipians. The hard-hittin- g of Steve Pick-ering for the V.F.W's and of Noel Copenhaver for Chipian's was easily the stand-ou- t events of the championship play-of- f. On Tuesday, August 23, the Ford V8's led by Sergio Alva-rez lost a 13-1- 2 game lo the Copperton seniors for the Sen-ior league championship. Stan-ley Long of Copperton struck out 11 and allowed 16 hits while Lopez, who relieved Mon-toy- a in the third, struck out 6 and allowed 9 hits. The feature of the game was Don Crump's great throw from right field lo catch Alvarez at the plate with lhe lying run which end-ed the ball game. The Apex team of Highland Boy won the softball champion-ship. This team was captained by "Weasel" Smilanich. |
